Drop cables are normally used when a computer or computerised device or communication device is sited away from a wall. Walls will normally carry conduit that carries cabling down to a set of sockets that the device can then be plugged into. Drop cables come from a ceiling (normally) and drop to a desk or stand furniture when the device is located. Most large open plan offices will use this method. You will see it in operation at a supermarket for instance where cables for point of sales equipment are dropped from a over head conduit to the machines (tills) below. This process allows for hard wiring of equipment rather than use RF connection.

What are drop cables?
Drop cables are the final segment of a telecommunications network that connect the main distribution line to individual homes or businesses. Typically used in fiber-optic and coaxial networks, these cables are designed for short-distance transmission and are often more flexible and easier to install than mainline cables. They ensure that end-users have access to high-speed internet, television, and telephone services. Drop cables can vary in composition and design, depending on the specific requirements of the installation and the environment.
Why drop voltage in xlpe cable is more than PVC cable?
The higher voltage drop in XLPE cables compared to PVC cables is due to the different electrical properties of the materials. XLPE has a lower dielectric constant and higher resistivity than PVC, leading to a higher internal resistance and therefore higher voltage drop. Additionally, XLPE cables usually have a higher operating temperature, which can also contribute to increased voltage drop.
How do you reduce volt drops in cables?
You can draw less current, half the current gives half the amount of volt drop. Or use a thicker cable because doubling the cross-section area would also give half the volt drop.
How do I use cable ties on my TV?
Cable ties and useful to bundle cables together. Bundling cables together provide safety and organization of the cables. Some ties for cables are designed for a single use.
How are Monster HDMI cables cables better than standard HDMI cables?

How do you thaw a frozen pipe with jumper cables?
You use a welder, not jumper cables!
Should you use HDMI cables if you do not have HD?
HDMI cables have not ports in a non hd tv so no you should not use them
What is the required dept for underground telephone cables?
Depends on the size of the cable. Becasue they are low voltage they do not need to be buried very deep. Typically main cables are buried 1-3 feet down. Residential "drop" cables are anywhere from 3-18 inches
Can you use USB cables for networking?
You can but it is easier to use eithernet.
Can all MP3 players use standard USB cables to connect to the computer?
All MP3 players do use USB cables to connect to the computer, although some may use standard and some may use the mini connector. There are adapters for either. http://www.ramelectronics.net/audiovideo/computer-cables/usb-cables/c20000-c21000-c21300-p1.html
What are the different types of cables?
There are several types of video cables. These types include: coaxial cables, HDMI cables, component video,S-Video, and standard video cables. There are used to connect the various pieces of equipments that we use today.
